Alison has been supporting our daughter with her GCSE French in year 11 and we have already seen improvement in a short timeframe. Our daughter has found the lessons very helpful with a friendly and supportive approach from Alison. Alison provides additional resources to support the lesson content and follows up with post lesson homework. We would recommend Alison as a very good French tutor.

Alison supported my son with some adhoc German lessons over the summer holidays, before he heads into year 10. Alison has been extremely accommodating and flexible in this regard. She took time to understand my sons requirements and level of knowledge to support him and make the lessons accessible. She has gone out of her way to provide additional resources and prompt my son to prepare well ahead of lessons to make the most out of their time. I would heartily recommend her as a tutor.

Alison is a very professional German tutor. She has deep knowledge of the subject , is very organised and is punctual to every lesson. My daughter has made significant progress in her German language proficiency after starting lessons with her. I would recommend Alison to anyone who is looking for assistance in the German language.

Absolutely brilliant French teacher. As a mature student who has studied French on and off for years, she makes sure that points of grammar are explained clearly and how you can make shortcuts to remember them. Most native French teachers are reticent to speak in English but Alison has the balance right. Sometimes you have to have an explanation in English so you can learn the French. She`s really good.
